Exhaust springs

[Ericcny]

I'm a new Spyder F3 owner and new to this forum. I've already purchased several items from Lamonster and one is the muffler replacement pipe. I've read here about people fighting with the springs and I just wanted to share here what I used. I already had it in the toolbox from being a snowmobile owner too. It makes removing and installing a piece of cake!

Yup! :thumbup:
Nothing beats a good T-handled Spring-Puller!
(I've had mine for over 30 years!)

Good to know...

Not that I don't have several home made and store bought...but may Yoshimura R77 came with a real nice one. But in a pinch (like out on the road) a piece of sring/wire and a stick/ bolt or tool will work fine....:thumbup:

once it's hooked release the string and pull it through...

We carry a length of parachute cord for just this purpose. Wrap it around a wrench and pull! This is another chore where having a helper is a definite plus. One pulls while the other guides the spring.
